  • Now, take a big mixing bowl and combine both the flours, baking soda, and salt.

  • Add a little amount of water, if needed; make sure the dough is neither too sticky nor very hard.

  • Now, take a piece of dough the size of a tennis ball and roll it out on a lightly floured countertop.
  • Sprinkle some nigella seeds and some garlic and roll again so it gets stuck to the dough and doesn’t run away from it on the pan!
  • Now, it is time to put your perfect creation on the hot griddle and let it cook for 30 to 40 seconds. 
  • As soon as you see some bubbles on top of the naan, turn it over and cook another side, for about 2 to 3 minutes.
  • Take it off the pan and let the butter run on this hot naan generously without worrying about calories and just enjoy it with your favorite Indian cuisine!
